Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) introduced 35 articles of impeachment against President George W. Bush late on Monday during a speech on the House floor.  

Kucinich, a former contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, pointed to "high crimes and misdemeanors" committed by the Bush administration, including misrepresenting intelligence in the lead-up to the war, violating domestic and international laws against torture, illegally spying on American citizens, obstructing justice and governmental oversight, and dozens of other violations.  

The impeachment resolution came four days after a June 5 Senate Select Intelligence Committee report that vigorously challenged statements made by the Bush administration regarding military intelligence in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee John D. Rockefeller said in a press release, "Before taking the country to war, this Administration owed it to the American people to give them a 100 percent accurate picture of the threat we faced. 

Unfortunately, our Committee has concluded that the Administration made significant claims that were not supported by the intelligence."

Gus: Yes John, the list is long and solid, not like the "I had not sex with this woman" Clinton white fib that was quite humorous... The true result of Bushit behaviour has been many hundred of thousand people dead including 4100 US soldiers to date and more than 3 million refugees. Little Georgie Porkie has shown countless young people how to swindle and fudge with murderous results, and get away with it, so far... Hopefully, the tabled document will have an effect (I guess it will be voted on party lines, blah blah).

I never wish ill winds to anyone, even bad people — Bushit excepted.
